Fintage House, mediapeers announce strategic partnership

Part of the alliance will let Fintage House support mediapeers extending their user base. The companies will also work together on new web-based services for buyers and sellers.

Entertainment revenue collection and reporting company Fintage House and mediapeers, which concentrates on services for marketing, screening, licensing and delivery of content, have announced a new strategic partnership.

The pact was announced by Robert Aarts, co-CEO of Fintage House, and Holger Hendel and Moritz Viehweger, co-founders of mediapeers.

mediapeers runs the mediapeers exchange, the world’s leading online B2B marketplace for audiovisual content including feature films. Fintage House is the leading global financial service company in the entertainment industry. Both companies each serve over 1,000 companies in the film and TV industries globally.

Part of the alliance will let Fintage House support mediapeers extending their user base. The companies will also work together on new web-based services for buyers and sellers.

“I am convinced that their scalable online platform to distribute and acquire film and TV content is the way forward,” said Fintage CEO Robbert Aarts. “mediapeers will enable our producer/sales agent clients to efficiently sell rights that are currently underexploited. The mediapeers exchange is a secure, easy to use system that will generate more revenues for our clients and the cost benefit in using this platform is vast”

Hendel added: “As a distributor, you cannot differentiate yourself with screening technology or material handling, so why not leave it to mediapeers and capture economies of scale?”

Viehweger said: “Fintage is the de facto standard for representing rights owners in the audiovisual industry. This achievement shapes our aspiration as a trusted service provider serving the entire market.”
